Review "These are encounters youll want to have, ones that transform you, the way all great writing does, by language plain and brilliant, seductive and honest, only these do it more quickly-usually with a single turn of the page. The book is a revolution in reading, one you will be happy to join, and the writers are all ones you want to see more of." -- Robert Shapard, editor of Sudden Fiction and Flash Fiction Review Quote "These are encounters youll want to have, ones that transform you, the way all great writing does, by language plain and brilliant, seductive and honest, only these do it more quickly--usually with a single turn of the page.
